Kanpur: Bharatiya Janata Party president Rajnath Singh expressed confidence that the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) will cross the number of 300 seats in the Lok Sabha elections and will form the next government at the Centre.

Singh, who met senior Sangh leaders in New Delhi on Sunday and is learnt to have discussed the post-poll strategy ahead of counting of votes on May 16, said, "The poll results will be surprising.”

"I am very much hopeful that BJP-led NDA will cross the number of 300 seats in the Lok Sabha elections and will form the next government at the Centre," Singh said on the margins of an event in the national capital.

On meeting with Sangh leaders, Singh said that he met them to express gratitude for support they extended in the general elections.
